Ensuring BI Publisher Data Triggers Run Before SQL Execution

Avatar photoCustomer May 22, 2021 at 2:51 pm

I have an imported BI Publisher report where the main SQL selects from global temporary tables (GTTs). The GTTs are populated by a beforeReportTrigger. How does Blitz Report execute this logic?

      When a report is imported from BI Publisher, the original data definition XML is stored in the BIP Code field. If this field is populated, Blitz Report automatically executes the dataTrigger section, such as beforeReportTrigger, before running the primary report SQL.

      So the BIP Code field is vital for any report that relies on PLSQL preprocessing?

      Yes, it is crucial for reports that rely on PLSQL code, such as those populating temporary tables, to ensure data is prepared before the main query is executed.

      Is there an easy way to verify the content of the XML template stored there?

      Yes, you can double click onto the BIP Code field in the report setup window to download and view the associated XML data definition template.
